Product description
Ink on paper. 1981
An authentic piece of art at an affordable price.
This original ink drawing by Eechaut showcases his architectural approach to abstraction, defined by sharp geometric rhythm and meticulous linework. The overlapping planes and grid-like segments evoke a sense of depth and structure, while the asymmetrical, linear composition adds tension and movement. The right portion of the piece introduces more chaotic, angular forms—perhaps referencing fragmented urban landscapes or abstracted crystalline structures.
Executed entirely in black ink on paper, the work demonstrates Eechaut’s technical precision and fascination with formal clarity. As with many of his compositions, there’s a play between order and entropy, control and freedom—placing this drawing in a dialogue with modernist graphic design and constructivist aesthetics.
Since the 1960s, E. Eechaut exhibited alongside renowned artists such as René Magritte at the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery in Brussels. Archival photographs and invitation cards confirm his participation in exhibitions alongside figures like Ambrogiani, Bricault, Jean Cocteau, Max Ernst, Hilaire, and Félicien Rops, among others.
Eechaut's artistic journey began gaining recognition in 1958 when he received his first distinctions from the "European Center for Art and Aesthetics." From 1968 onwards, he actively collaborated with the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery, showcasing his work throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Initially categorized under "Fantastic Art," his style is distinguished by elegance and finesse. His captivating use of color not only enhances his subjects but also draws the viewer into their mysterious allure.
Throughout his career, Eechaut exhibited in some of Europe's most prestigious galleries and exhibitions, sharing space with celebrated artists such as Paul Klee, Dunoyer de Segonzac, and Léon Navez. Despite his success, he was known for his reluctance to sell his work—even to his own family—jealously guarding his creations. This exclusivity has contributed to the scarcity of information and the limited availability of his pieces on the market.
Eechaut developed several distinctive artistic styles, including unique ink techniques and a recognizable color palette. His work with collages became an integral part of his creative expression, further establishing his signature aesthetic. Each of his pieces is marked by his authentic artist's stamp, a testament to his originality and craftsmanship.
The recent discovery of his long-hidden studio has unveiled an extensive collection of his works and archives, offering a fresh perspective on his artistic legacy. With growing interest and increasing market value, investing in Eechaut's art presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of extraordinary artistic heritage.
